Oh dear. After 14 years, Duke Nukem Forever launches today in the UK via 2K and Gearbox. The verdict? It seems to be mixed right now at the minute. So far, only a few reviews have gotten out right now, but you can get them below. If you have any links to add, do so […]

Gearbox’s Randy Pitchford has said Duke Nukem Forever will review well, but in the end, numbers are irrelevant to the Duke. Meanwhile, the developer is seeking to credit past contributors to the long-awaited title.

Gearbox Software head Randy Pitchford has told VG247′s Stephany Nunneley a Duke Nukem Forever demo in an “important” part of marketing the game, and the developer can now start working on a demo release date following DNF’s unveiling in Seattle last Friday.

3D Realms’ George Broussard has pinned Naughty Dog’s Uncharted series up with the very best after playing the heavily-hyped second game. “Amazing single player experiences,” he said, writing on the Shack forums. “Nearly, if not, on par with Half-Life 1/2. I haven’t felt this giddy over a game series since Half-Life. “This is epic badassery […]

Bethesda’s issued a fat “no comment” on news this morning that its grabbed the Prey IP from Apogee. The 3D Realms shooter now appears to be in the publisher’s hands, as you can see from this USPTO filing. Zenimax has also filed a new trademark on the property. New game? By id? Yes please, great […]

Apogee’s Prey now appears to be in the trusty hands of Zenimax, as you can see from this USPTO filing. Native American FPS still has a home, clearly. Zenimax has also filed a new trademark on the property. We’ll check now. Thanks, superannuation.

Take-Two Interactive has revealed via new court records that Gearbox Software was the developer for Duke Begins. The game was originally revealed via a court filing by 3D Realms. Duke Begins was apparently part of an agreement between Take-Two and 3D Realms in 2007 with Gearbox handling development. Since all the court hoopla, the title […]

3D Realms has released more Duke Nukem Forever screens, this time over in its Facebook page.

Point is, do you even really care anymore? Hit the links […]

Gather ’round, kids. It’s story time. Shacknews recently couldn’t avoid stumbling over new documents pertaining to the Take-Two and 3D Realms’ Duke Nukem Forever feud because — hoo boy — within those documents lies one tall tale. In essence, Take-Two claims that 3D Realms/Apogee wouldn’t agree to develop an Xbox 360 version of the now […]

id biz man Steve Nix told VG at E3 that he thought news of Duke Nukem Forever’s cancellation was some kind of internet fabrication. “I thought it was a joke when I heard the other day,” he said. “Definitely extremely saddened and surprising that those guys aren’t there and we may never see the game […]

Almost seven minutes of unseen Duke Nukem Forever footage popped up on the Jace Hall Show. If you are interested in seeing more of what you may never be able to play, go hit up Shack to watch. It’s not the best footage, but at least it’s something.

3D Realms has just issued a statement saying the firm is an ongoing concern and has not closed. It was widely reported that the developer bit the dust earlier in May thanks to a lack of funding. “Despite rumors and statements to the contrary, 3D Realms (3DR) has not closed and is not closing,” said […]

3D Realms boss Scott Miller’s said the developer never saw the $12 million Take-Two’s claiming was dropped on the failed development of Duke Nukem Forever. “No. We didn’t get a penny of that money,” said the exec, talking in this Shacknews comments thread. “This, along with so much else, is 100 percent spin, being eaten […]

Take-Two’s filed a suit against Apogee for continually delaying Duke Nukem Forever. The publisher is now $12 million to the bad after 3D Realms went bust, Forever never being delivered. “Apogee continually delayed the completion date for the Duke Nukem Forever,” Take-Two said in the complaint. “Apogee repeatedly assured Take-Two and the video-gaming community that […]

3D Realms being done and dusted, there’s not much holding back Duke Nukem Forever assets seeping out. As you can see after the break. It’s not confirmed as coming from the game, but it clearly is. It comes from ex-3D Realms employee Bryan Brewer’s personal website. Thanks, Joystiq.

Duke Nukem Forever artist, Chris Smith, has released some shots of the title over on his personal blog. Stating on the page that he is currently looking for work now that 3D Realms has gone bust, Smith wrote nothing but positive things about his experience on the project. “Two years, nine months. Now it’s over. […]

3D Realms George Broussard said on Twitter today that a developmental milestone has been reached on the long-awaited Duke Nukem Forever. According to the tweet, the firm has cleared off a large percentage of the game’s original goals – and Broussard likes the show “24″: “71 more tasks to do and we started with probably […]

3D Realms has made up a nice piece of Duke Nukem Forever wallpaper for Christmas – get it in various sizes from the developer’s site. Not quite the Duke news people want to hear, but there we are. Look at large monsters through the link.

The new Duke Nukem Forever screens from the XBLA release of Duke Nukem 3D have been posted on Duke4.net in decent resolution, should you be in need of such a thing. Little else to say, really. Have a look.

There’s a YouTube video after the break which appears to show some new Duke Nukem Forever screens squirreled away in the XBLA release of Duke Nukem 3D. The images can apparently unlocked and viewed in the game’s gallery. Fancy. More on Kotaku.

Shacknews has posted what’s apparently the first hands-on with the XBLA version of Duke Nukem 3D. From the piece: Trading in keyboard and mouse for trigger and analog stick, I was relieved to see how well it’s held up. It’s still an enjoyable FPS, an innovative game that even today is worth playing for the […]

A Microsoft represntative told Joystiq at X08 in Toronto that Duke Nukem 3D, released on XBLA sometime in September, will have saved film and gameplay rewind features. The rewind feature lets you do just that: rewind the game to a previous area where you messed up or simply think you can do things better. The […]

3D Realms’ George Broussard has told Shacknews that Duke Nukem XBLA is finished and will be released “soon.” “We officially passed final cert on our first try Friday, August 15th,” said Bruossard. When asked about price, he said: “about what you’d expect.” So anywhere between 800 and 1200 Points, we’d imagine. According to the official […]

When asked by Next-Gen why Duke Nukem Forever won’t be making the trip to E3, 3D Realms chief Scott Miller had a pretty straightforward answer. “We view E3 as irrelevant nowadays,” he said. “In fact, I wasn’t even aware it was coming up.” We suppose that would be an issue when you’re developing your game […]

Update: It’s true. We just watched it. It’s a nice looking shooter with a shrink ray. And a worm with teeth. It’s embedded after the link. Or is was posted. Apparently this Jace Hall movie contained the first ever in-game footage of Duke Nukem Forever, but has not either been pulled or is having bandwidth […]

Shacknews has been to 3D Realms’ offices to actually, properly view Duke Nukem Forever, as you can see here. We actually got to see the truth of Duke curator George Broussard’s many past claims, including environmental puzzles and interactivity, a host of finished weapons, the existence of an in-game forklift, and plenty of heads and […]
